Attention Everyone who attended the August Event,

We have just received word that one of our players was diagnosed with Meningitis after the event which means he was a carrier while the event was going on. Please just watch your health and get yourself checked if you see any of the signs.

The most common symptoms of meningitis are headache and neck stiffness associated with fever, confusion or altered consciousness, vomiting, and an inability to tolerate light (photophobia) or loud noises (phonophobia).
 
Incubation Period

The incubation period depends on the causative agent. For example the incubation period of meningococcal meningitis is 2-10 days while the incubation for hemophilus meningitis is much shorter ranging from 2-4 days. However the range of incubation for most organisms causing meningitis is 2 days to 2 weeks.
